Katy vs. Ke$ha - Tik Tok California Gurl$
Today while perusing the web I came across a post that mentioned how Katy Perry’s “California Gurls” happened to have the exact same beat as Ke$ha’s “Tik Tok”. I hadn’t noticed it myself and upon closer inspection it seemed that, yes, they were quite similar. After doing a little digging it seemed that a lot of people were noticing the similarities, including the New York Post.
Since I had yet to make my annual mashup I thought what better tracks to try than these two. After about 40 minutes of work this was the result. A little more tidying up of some edits is required but overall I’m quite pleased with the result.
It should be pointed out: I am not the first to make a mashup like this. In fact, there are already a few out there (including this one which served as my main inspiration). However this is my version, with my own touches here and there.
So there you have it: two great summer jamz rolled all into one. Like peanut butter and chocolate. But be warned: it’s so hot, it’ll melt your popsicle. Or possibly your Reeses Peanut Butter Cup.
UPDATE: You can now download the track here, or get the complete single here (including 2 alternate mixes and a third bonus mix).

- Get shit. faced.
- Meet a new friend(s)
- Go to Venice Beach
- Camp
- Buy my tickets to see Paramore
- Take Nick Jonas’ V-Card
- Rearrange my room and maybe paint it
- Get tickets to the Epicenter Concert
- Dye my hair a dark reddish or ginger color
- Get a pug puppy
- Have an awesome best friend sleepover
So I know some of these might be unreasonable (well Nick Jonas’ virginity) but i’m going to keep track of how much I accomplish.
why do you park in driveways but drive in parkways?
why is iceland green and greenland icy?
why is a building called a building since it’s already built?
why must i have so much time as to think about stuff like this?
i need to find out what everyone is doing for the fourth of july. since i’ve made it a mission to hang out with christian on that day we need to find some awesome people to hang out with and some awesome stuff to do.
dear crush,
you make me smile. we are friends, really good friends actually. i like when you sing in the car. i like your short hair. i like how you make me feel as if i can tell you everything. i like your laugh. i think that i like you because i know it would never work out. i wouldn’t want to lose the friendship that we have and plus i’m pretty sure that you don’t feel the same.
this weekend.
i went and explored this creek with a boy whom i like. it was so nice. we had so much fun. the water was so nice. it reminded me of nebraska and it made me think of how my friends and i would go down to the river and swim or go to the lake and have bonfires. then after we went and got mexican food. it was yummy. i have some random pictures that i’ll eventually post on here but i’m too freaking lazy to get up and find my camera and cord.
then later that night i went to see the movie grown ups with bianca and her dad. that movie made me laugh so much. i think that bianca, her dad, and i were the loudest people in there. i swear we were dying.
finally at about 10pm. julia and christian showed up at my house to rescue me for the weekend. we went to see toy story 3. it was so good, i had seen it once before but since i loved it so much i was more than willing to see it again. after that we went back to julia’s and watch one of mine and christian’s favorite movies 11:14 after that christian tried to rape me…just kidding. well we ended up staying up until 5am or so and then only sleeping until 11:30 :/
the next day i stayed the night at julia’s again and it was really fun. we went to eat at dennys at 10pm for dinner and then watched movies until we passed out. we had a total heart to heart conversation and it was really nice. then at 9am (yes 9 in the fucking morning) christian came back over because he forgot his ipod. after christian left julia and i proceeded to do nothing but lay around and do nothing. it was great.
i feel like i was rushed by writing the best friend letter. so i’m redoing it
dear christian,
even though when you shed like a cat and you burp words to me while we sing telephone in your car i consider you my best friend. and even though you always correct me when i accidentally misspell words because you know it’s my biggest pet peeve i put up with you. so i guess you’re a keeper.
in all reality though, you are an amazing friend. even when we are mad at each other we manage to get over it (after cussing like sailors at eachother…well me cussing like a sailor at you) i still remember walking up to you on the first day of junior year and thinking you were the biggest asshole i’d ever met but then becoming best friends. i guess the fact that i can ask you the most random questions and tell you the weirdest things without you freaking out makes our friendship easier.
well i feel like i’ve rambled on enough. i dont think i actually need to write you a letter telling you that your my best friend because you know.
oh gosh i have a couple crush’s right now. but i’ll just pick one.
Dear crush,
i met you in my junior year and when i first saw you i thought you where so cute and i knew my friend was friends with you so i got to talk to you because of her. :) i didn’t know we would become like best friend though you are seriously one of the funniest boys i have ever met and i feel really comfortable around you. well, thats all i’m gonna say. :)
oh baby way to be so modest ;) hahahahahaha!
i have two people i’m going to talk about.
dear best friend,
who would have ever thought my crazy-ass mom would let us sleep in the same room? haha. when i think of our friendship i think of that one time when you stayed at my house and we played donkey kong and super mario until like 3am. or when we watched crazy ass movies like 11:14 or requiem for a dream. i remember how we always used to talk on the phone like every night about stupid shit that i can’t even remember.
edit: (i just added this) i feel like i can tell you anything, even if its creepy or weird or just dumb which most stuff i usually tell you is. when i moved to nebraska i didn’t think that we would still be friends because i thought we would grow apart as most friends do when faced with the fact that they’re 1500 miles away from eachother.
YOURE MY MISSING PIECE NIGGA!
dear best friend,
you are my concert buddy. we always think the same thing and it’s so weird. haha. i’m excited that we are going to college together and i know we will have so much fun. i think that the main reason we became friends was the fact that i just decided we had to be friends and of course because we both love the jonas brothers. i love spending the night at your house because its so fun even when destiny is annoying. and i like that you didn’t get freaked out when i died after seeing alex gaskarth or when i raped your leg after see JB.
